What goes wrong
Ducts running through an unheated attic or crawlspace lose heat through their walls even when perfectly sealed. In summer the same runs gain heat and can sweat, damaging joists and ceilings beneath them.
Heating and cooling around Washington Boro
Around Washington Boro the fuel is usually natural gas, though propane turns up wherever the main stops short. What makes Lancaster County distinctive is the age of the buildings: stone farmhouses and pre-war homes that were designed around radiators and later had ductwork threaded through them.
Those retrofits are behind a lot of the comfort complaints we are called about — rooms that never settle, and a system blamed for duct problems.
A room everyone has given up on is worth one visit. We have found runs delivering air into a crawlspace for years while the room above was written off as impossible to heat.

Ductwork Repair in Washington Boro — questions
Do you cover Washington Boro for ductwork repair?
Yes. Washington Boro in Lancaster County is inside our service area and the 17582 postal area is worked by the nearest crew. Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays.
Should ducts in my attic be insulated?
Yes. In a Pennsylvania attic a duct loses heat in winter and gains it in summer, and an uninsulated cold duct will sweat and damage what is beneath it.
Why is one room always colder than the rest?
Most often a disconnected, crushed or undersized run, or a system that was never balanced. The fix is frequently simple, and people live with it for years assuming nothing can be done.
Can I just close vents in rooms I do not use?
Better not to. It raises static pressure, pushes more air out through leaks, can trip furnace limit switches and can freeze a cooling coil. Adjustments belong at the damper.
